Interest for spacetime structures has recently been revived, following developments in metamaterials and ultrafast optics. Such structures essentially consist of successions of space-time interfaces for which the theory is still incomplete,…
In this paper we generalize the Fenichel theory for attracting critical/slow manifolds to fast-reaction systems in infinite dimensions. In particular, we generalize the theory of invariant manifolds for fast-slow partial differential…
In this paper we investigate the effect of a Signorini-type interface condition on the asymptotic behaviour, as $\varepsilon$ tends to zero, of problems posed in $\varepsilon$-periodic domains with inclusions. The Signorini-type condition…
In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion system describing the propagation of flames under the assumption of ignition-temperature kinetics and fractional reaction order. It was shown in [3] that this system admits a traveling front…
In this paper, we study the formation of finite time singularities for the solution of the boundary layer equations in the two-dimensional incompressible heat conducting flow. We obtain that the first spacial derivative of the solution…

We derive an explicit representation of the fundamental solution to the heat equation in a half-space of ${\mathbb R}^N$ with a diffusive dynamical boundary condition, and establish sharp pointwise upper and lower bounds. We also…
We consider a two-type contact process on $\Z$ in which both types have equal finite range and supercritical infection rate. We show that a given type becomes extinct with probability 1 if and only if, in the initial configuration, it is…
The classical problem of thermal explosion is modified so that the chemically active gas is not at rest but is flowing in a long cylindrical pipe. Up to a certain section the heat-conducting walls of the pipe are held at low temperature so…
The confined, quasi-two-dimensional guiding center plasma and a system of interacting line vortices in an ideal fluid are examples of Hamiltonian systems with infinite interaction distances. The existence of metastable states with negative…
This paper presents a full classification of the short-time behavior of the interfaces in the Cauchy problem for the nonlinear second order degenerate parabolic PDE \[ u_t-\Delta u^m +b u^\beta=0, \ x\in \mathbb{R}^N, 0<t<T \] with…
This paper is concerned with the analysis of speed-up of reaction-diffusion-advection traveling fronts in infinite cylinders with periodic boundary conditions. The advection is a shear flow with a large amplitude and the reaction is…
We consider a porous media equation with balanced bistable reactions, equipped with some general nonlinear boundary condition. When the coefficient of the reaction term is much larger than that of the diffusion term, we see that, besides…
In this paper, we consider a space-time fractional partial differential equation with a reactive term. We describe the speed of invasion of its fundamental solution, extending recent results in this topic, which had been proved for the one…
A reaction-diffusion equation on a family of three dimensional thin domains, collapsing onto a two dimensional subspace, is considered. In \cite{\rfa pr..} it was proved that, as the thickness of the domains tends to zero, the solutions of…
We discuss the sharp interface limit of a diffuse interface model for a two-phase flow of two partly miscible viscous Newtonian fluids of different densities, when a certain parameter \epsilon>0 related to the interface thickness tends to…
We consider a free interface problem which stems from a solid-gas model in combustion with pattern formation. We derive a third-order, fully nonlinear, self-consistent equation for the flame front. Asymptotic methods reveal that the…
Abstract. The present work considers a change in the momentum under the transfer of a solution through the interface. It is shown that pressure related to the partial volumes of components arises in a solution under diffusion. As a result,…
In liquid mixtures and other binary systems at low temperatures the pure phases may coexist, separated by an interface. The interface tension vanishes according to $\sigma = \sigma_0 (1 - T/T_c)^{\mu}$ as the temperature T approaches the…
Numerical heat and mass transfer analysis of a configuration where a cool liquid hydrocarbon is suddenly introduced to a hotter gas at supercritical pressure shows that a well-defined phase equilibrium can be established before substantial…
